Black power under printer
Hi guys,
I'm dealing with a weird phenomenon with my Prusa MK2S.
I recently changed my heatbed, and since then I've been seeing black powder beneath my printer, see pictures:
Any idea what this is and whether I should worry?
Thanks,
Ram.

That is your y-axis belt slowly disentigrating. You should check the movement on your y axis and either loosen or tighten it. Looks lime loosen it a little.

Also the idler position should be adjusted. R/L
Re: Black power under printer
As already mentioned the belt is rubbing against something. Check the whole belt path. Motor - Bed holder - Idler. All of them need to be perfectly in line.
No worries about the used belt, It's still good and don't need to be replaced.
